Varget in a 7MM-o8

Temp stability…

Varget is a great powder.

Not the speediest, though. Big Game is equally accurate (maybe a bit better) but quite a bit faster.

And if you can, why not?

My favorite hunting load is the 140 AB over BG and it's freaking awesome. 2925 fps and 3/4" or better groups. I would hunt almost anything with that load.

I tried the 150 ELDX over BG and it didn't seem to work well, so I tried Varget. 1/2" groups at 2750 fps and almost no recoil. Not a speed demon, but it is fun to shoot and hell on whitetails.

Those are great numbers. What barrel length?

Anyone run into issues with Big Game with small rifle primered brass?
